Stability Conditions for the Horndeski Scalar Field Gravity Model
Cláudio Gomes, Orfeu Bertolami
We constrain the viable models of Horndeski gravity, written in its equivalent Generalised Galileon version, by resorting to the Witten positive energy theorem. We find that the fr…

A note on the comments of arXiv:2003.10154 [gr-qc] to our paper Nonminimally Coupled Boltzmann Equation I: Foundations (arXiv:2002.08184 [gr-qc])
Orfeu Bertolami, Cláudio Gomes
In this note we comment on remarks about our recent effort to understand the specificities of the Boltzmann equation in the context of the alternative theories of gravity with non-…

Nonminimally Coupled Boltzmann Equation I: Foundations
Orfeu Bertolami, Cláudio Gomes
We derive the Boltzmann equation in the context of a gravity theory with non-minimal coupling between matter and curvature. We show that as the energy-momentum tensor is not conser…
